The trench is then backfilled, and additional material added to the top. Both of the Baltimore tunnels (the Harbor Tunnel and Fort McHenry Tunnel) used this method in their construction. The Harbor Tunnel, built in the mid-1950s, was considered an engineering marvel.
The American Tunnel was constructed from 1959-61, extending beyond the Gold King property to the Sunnyside Mine workings. The disastrous Lake Emma flood in 1978 forced the closure of the mine.
